Parks & Recreation Committee Recommendation for Council to Consider <br />Allocating Funds from District Memorial Hospital Board Dissolution Settlement <br />$17.383.12 to the Purchase of Skate Park Equipment for Laurie LaMotte <br />Memorial Park <br /> <br />Council Member Lee indicated the City received $17,383.12 from District Memorial <br />Hospital and they requested that it be used for health related purposes and the Park and <br />Recreation Committee feels that exercise benefits people's health and that this would be a <br />way to provide funds to them for parks. <br /> <br />Mayor Capra said that she heard that more children own skateboards than baseball bats <br />now. <br /> <br />Mayor Capra said she would like to hold off on this decision until goal setting is done <br />and the needs are evaluated. <br /> <br />Council Member Broussard said that if Council agrees to purchase this equipment <br />replacement would need to be budgeted because the equipment does not last forever. <br /> <br />Council Member Lakso indicated that she would like to wait because she is not in favor <br />of spending the entire amount because it is a limited scope of exercise for a few people <br />and she would prefer to use the funds to benefit a larger number of residents. <br /> <br />Council Member Paar indicated that he was at the meeting and the reason the equipment <br />did not last was it was not good quality and Parks wants to replace it so kids have a place <br />to skateboard. <br /> <br />Council Member Lakso said that she thinks that $17,000 is a lot for three pieces of <br />equipment. <br /> <br />Motion by Council Member Lakso. seconded by Mayor Capra to table.
